Now with Wave Picking

Wave picking is a method used in warehouses and distribution centers to fulfill multiple orders simultaneously. Instead of picking one order at a time, Wave Picking helps workers pick items for multiple orders in one pass through the warehouse. This method can help increase efficiency and productivity by reducing the overall time spent picking orders. When the goods come back to the packing bench, again the PDA can be used to pick goods randomly from the cart and distribute into the appropriate consignment.

Paperless Warehousing June 2021

Peach Software Paperless Warehousing pays for itself over and over!

Incorrect inventory data is caused by simple errors during Receiving, counting, moving or selling. The accumulation of these errors can contribute to lost sales, costly overstocks and obsolete inventory. The Peach Software Paperless Warehousing device will reduce errors while making jobs that you dread, more desirable. The PDA will speed up multiple processors giving you more time to concentrate on other areas of importance.

Weather you have a small retail shop or multiple large warehouses, the Peach Paperless warehousing application will increase productivity and accuracy. Right from the point of receiving stock into your warehouse, moving between bin locations and picking, this powerful application will save you time and money. You can also use the PDA to do stocktaking without having to quarantine any areas of your business, paperwork or preparation. Simply scan – count and Update. Stocktake any product in your business any time. Plus the Scan2Peach feature which allows you to scan a list of products to do a Bulk change or use in any transaction screen or print labels.

Stocktake

The stocktake screen is the most used application within the PDA suite. Scan – Count – Update – DONE !!

No Prep No Mistakes

Just scan a product, enter the count and update. Now move on to the next product. After you’re done Run a Stocktake Activity report from V12. While a product is loaded you can edit details such as Group Code, Supplier, Location, Price and more.

No Barcode ? No Problem !

Search by part number e.g. BJ for all parts starting with BJ or Description using a dot in front of any three character strings e.g. m14 Bottom Tap making finding products so fast

Alternate Supplier products

Like most of our clients you may have more than one supplier for some of your generic products, and although those products represent the same selling item, they probably have a different Barcode or Part Number on their packaging. Peach understands and when you scan an alternate product barcode or part number, it will still find the primary product it’s known and sold as. In this example CT-358 is my primary Product Code, but the item I Scanned “CTUV-360” belongs to an Alternate supplier.

 

 

Receiving

Receipting your goods into your Shop or Warehouse requires focus, attention to detail and product knowledge. So this application is going to save you a lot of time, while freeing up your experienced staff to serve customers. You can receive an entire delivery by opening the carton and just start scanning anything you pick out of the box then finalise, accuracy and speed can be achieved even with a part time inexperienced worker, since there is no identification or counting involved.

Click Receive to display a list of supplier orders. Use the search box by entering the order number or suppliers name to filter the list. Select the order and start scanning Items randomly straight out of the delivery.

As you scan through the items, you can view a picture of the item, expected Qty and Qty scanned so far. For larger Qty’s use the tick to fully supply and move on. If the item has no barcode just click Next to choose the next item you have picked up from a list. Remember you can search for a product by typing the part number into the scan box instead of scanning.

Once all products have been checked off, click finalise. Check for Exceptions and update. In this example there were 14 lines but 3 product have exceptions. The operator can re check those items or finalise and move onto the next delivery. Once finalised the Admin staff can recall the Goods In transaction as a Delivery Docket and check the pricing against the suppliers invoice prior to finalising.

If you use Multi Bin Locations and have Allocate bin locations ticked in setup options, then the App will ask you where you want the goods booked into, otherwise they will be booked into your default location. You’re done, what use to take hours has now been streamlined and accuracy all the better for it.

Move

This application within the Paperless Warehousing is to enable moving products from one Bin location to another. Perhaps to re stock your primary picking location or to move products into a bulk location, from the Temporary location you have receipted them into during the Receipting process.

Scan or Search for the Item to be moved. Now select where from, the Qty, and where too. Update and you’re done.

You can see how many items are already in the existing location so choosing which one to move too or if you need to add a new location is easy

If you want to move the product to a new location simply click add new location, enter the location address and Add. Then the Qty and done.

Pick

Accuracy and efficiency can be improved with the addition of the Pick application to the PDA Suite. Now with the Logical picking sequence feature, you can ensure even more efficiency when you have multiple bin locations enabled. If the Default location has insufficient stock to pick for the order Qty, the picking slip will re route you to the next bin with sufficient stock while still maintaining the shortest distance between picks according to your Bin Identity.

Displays Outstanding Customer orders, Oldest first. Note – When updating a customer order in V12, you can prioritise them so they appear at the top of this list if they are urgent. Start by select the next order to be packed.

Scan Mode allows you to pick an order without following any particular order. So if the part of the warehouse you are in does not have bin locations, or your business isn’t at that stage yet then you can simply guide yourself. This feature can be toggled on and off as required with the Guided/Scan Button in the heading.

Guided Mode guides you around the warehouse as per your preferred sequence. Start Scanning the item or hit the + – to increment the Qty. You can also hit the Tick to indicate 100% picked to speed things up

The List (Hamburger Icon)

In some of the previous screens you can see a button which looks like a List. By pressing that, you will see a list of the products in the customer order which can be filtered to display exceptions only.

The Finalise screen allows you to add a note and your Name before Finalising. Clicking the Exceptions tab will display the Parts List where exceptions can be viewed. Finalise and you are ready for the next order to pick.

It is possible to open & edit an order by selecting Closed Items and then opening them, you can even reset them back to an open status to start again.

Step 1

Scan the products you want to work with and click finalise

Step 2

Open the list in PeachV12 in any Transaction screen. You can also Print Labels for the products scanned. Even Bulk change can be done for the products scanned right there on the PDA. Great for moving a scanned list of products from one location to another.

Step 3

Here’s a preview of some of the Fields you can Bulk Update for the list scanned.

Settings

At the base of the home screen is the Settings shortcut. Here you can make changes to the way Stocktake, Picking or receiving can work. Before we ship the device to you, we go through and make sure these are optimised for your site, but let’s have a quick look.

Stocktake Settings can change the order in which the Next Button behaves unless like most you’re using the scanner, in which case next is not used since with the PDA you can scan any product in any order. Typically you would simply move along an area and scan then enter the count. If you are doing a major stocktake it may be useful to have the staff precede the PDA and count and mark the Qty so the person using the PDA can move along faster. The PDA could keep pace with 3-4 counters speeding up your stocktake.

Pick Order You can set the order in which the PDA guides you around the warehouse to pick orders and can be set to Ascending or Descending. Order by Bin Location is only used if your have the Multiple Bin Locations settings synchronised and Allocated ticked in the Peach setup Area. Call Peach support before changing these settings.

Pick Based on Supply If the Supply Qty is less than the Ord Qty on your order. The PDA will prompt you to pick and Display Exceptions based on what can be Supplied.

Default Scan Mode allows you to scan and pick items randomly overriding any order.

Receive Settings. Unlike our previous version you can save as a DelDkt so the goods are booked in and can be dispatched faster. The DelDkt Transaction can then be retrieved into the Goods In screen in V12, and costs checked against the suppliers invoice before finalising. If not used the application simply edits the supplier order by updating the Supplied Qty, so when retrieved into the Goods in screen in V12, the Qty’s received are according to your PDA operator. This tick sets this feature as the default. If unticked you still have the option prior to finalising.
